How to Make Amish Sticky Buns Sweet Rolls Wow Wow Wow

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar in 1/2 cup warm water (105-115°F). Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a separate saucepan, scald 1 cup whole milk. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt until melted and combined.
  3. Let the milk mixture cool to lukewarm (around 100-105°F).
  4. Add 2 cups all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture and stir to combine.
  5. Add the cooled milk mixture and 2 large eggs to the flour mixture. Beat well.
  6. Gradually add the remaining 3-3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, kneading lightly until a soft dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  7. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  8. While the dough is rising, prepare the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1/2 cup water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
  9. Divide the syrup evenly among six 8-inch square baking pans.
  10. Once the dough has doubled, punch it down and divide it in half.
  11. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half of the dough into a 12x18-inch rectangle.
  12. Sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon.
  13. Starting from the long side, tightly roll up each rectangle.
  14. Cut each roll into 1-inch slices and place them cut-side up in the prepared pans on top of the syrup.
  15. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  16. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
